Annie on the main page, its been a while I think. Good Stuff. I'm feeling nostalgic.

Comment #1 - Posted by: Pierre Auge at January 29, 2007 6:15 PM

So do we just do the CFWU and then straight into the 1st deadlift, or do we try a few with no weight on the bar first. Is there any set way? Do we do 3 minute breaks?

Comment #2 - Posted by: Mitchell at January 29, 2007 6:42 PM

Mitchell, its a max effort day. However, if you are unsure of your form, make sure that you have it down pat before loading up that bar. Breaks can be at about 2 minutes IIRC.

Comment #3 - Posted by: Nick C at January 29, 2007 6:57 PM

I'll be combining Angie and the DL workouts tomorrow.
Would you recommend Angie first?

Comment #4 - Posted by: Trevor S at January 29, 2007 6:59 PM

Looks like it's time to be totally embarrassed....Again!!!

Comment #5 - Posted by: Valerie S. at January 29, 2007 7:11 PM

The only reason to be embarrassed is if you skip it!

Comment #6 - Posted by: paulf at January 29, 2007 7:13 PM

Ok, dumb question I know...I am a newbie. What does 1-1-1-1-1-1-1 mean?

Comment #7 - Posted by: jkritsch at January 29, 2007 7:16 PM

Trevor S,

IMHO, you have two options:

1. On what do you need the most work: strength or metcon? Put that first. In other words; if you have a 500# dead but breathe heavy walking up the stairs, do the met-con first. If you run a 6 minute mile but struggle to deadlift your bodyweight, do the deads first.

2. On ME days, the weight you put up is most important because it determines your workload. All other variables remaining constant (rep schemes, rest time, ROM, etc), increasing your weight lifted is what increases your workload. Increased workload stimulates increased strength. IMO, on metcon days, of equal importance is time and effort (in other words, many folks here have had success managing workouts for time some days, and selling-out on others.) Under this rational, workload takes precedence over time in the WOD. Do the deads first.

BTW, I wouldn't use either of those rationales. I LOVE TO DEADLIFT! I'd do that first! :-)

Comment #8 - Posted by: John Seiler at January 29, 2007 7:17 PM

jkritsch,

No need to be embarrassed. We were all new once. Seven single reps. Give yourself plenty of time (2-5 minutes) between reps to recover.

Comment #9 - Posted by: John Seiler at January 29, 2007 7:19 PM

#8

7 single max effort lifts with as much rest as required to perform your next max effort...

Comment #10 - Posted by: charlie from aus at January 29, 2007 7:22 PM

Trevor.
Think I'd be doing the deadlifts first.I wouldn't want to be lifting heavy load with already fatigued muscles.

Comment #11 - Posted by: peterh at January 29, 2007 7:39 PM

paulf #7
Thanks. I know you are right, and I won't skip, but I just stink at all lifts!!! It is a mystery to me, because I am a strong person...just can't get the technique down.

Comment #12 - Posted by: Valerie S. at January 29, 2007 7:39 PM

and don't forget to warm up, y'all.

deadlifts are haaaaaaaaaaaaard.

Comment #13 - Posted by: David Aguasca at January 29, 2007 7:40 PM

I hate deadlifts!!!!

Comment #14 - Posted by: Grant at January 29, 2007 7:44 PM

Deadlifts killed my parents and left me for dead...but I have sworn revenge. With my scarred left ankle of justice I will prevail!

I've been getting pretty good at deadlifts...is it okay to use a little chalk?

Comment #15 - Posted by: Y. Zhou at January 29, 2007 7:52 PM

What do you recommend for warm-up and cool down for CF workouts?

Comment #16 - Posted by: Andrew at January 29, 2007 7:54 PM

I've just bought an olympic bar but because of budget constraints i haven't got any additional plates yet. How should i do the WOD?

Does anyone ever use weightlifting gloves?

Comment #20 - Posted by: leannyB at January 29, 2007 8:24 PM

I have used gloves in the past.

Comment #21 - Posted by: Sophie at January 29, 2007 8:29 PM

Fun tip: for warmups, try doing a few snatch grip DLs, maybe even off a box. Greater range of motion, and as you add plates, you can lose the box, narrow the grip, and 'taper' to a true max effort, while reinforcing the arched-back, heels-down, shoulders-back form that's so goddamned hard to maintain when you're bearing down. I'm a day behind, but this has become my template for DL workouts, and I'm closing in on 250% of my bodyweight (having started well below 200% of it).

After reading Rippetoe's article, I started doing this, and it's helped; maybe it'll help some other folks too. Alls I know is that I've plunked about 90 pounds onto my deadlift since starting this and doing glute-ham raises regularly as part of the warmup. So something in the secret sauce is working. Give it a try if you're looking for a means to reinforce good form in your DL.

Comment #22 - Posted by: Tim T at January 29, 2007 8:29 PM

I am brand new to cross fit, the one concern that I have looking at the workouts is the heavy lift days. Any suggestions for substitutes for heavy squat/dead lift days.

Comment #23 - Posted by: tyler hawkins at January 29, 2007 8:29 PM

I wont be doing this one. I think I may have torn my knee up last week doing the DL... Has anyone had knee problems from the DL? I love CF and have never felt better or stronger but I started to feel like I was 21 again and pushed too hard..Be strong

Comment #24 - Posted by: lawman698 at January 29, 2007 8:32 PM

#8 John, thanks for that. I'm still undecided myself. I love the deadlifts too so know I'll enjoy that one more.
I really need the work on the kipping chin ups though.

I'll be doing this in the AM so how i feel on awakening will help determine.

Comment #25 - Posted by: Trevor S at January 29, 2007 8:35 PM

Use less weight. The heavy lifts are there for a reason.

Comment #27 - Posted by: Don King at January 29, 2007 8:42 PM

question on the official warm up, it seems like a lot to do 3 sets of 15 pull ups and dips 5 or six days a week. Is there anywhere to read alternative warm ups to pair with different workouts.

Comment #28 - Posted by: tyler hawkins at January 29, 2007 8:48 PM

GHR's as a warmup? Damn that would be sweet if the insurance company for my gym didn't force them to get rid of the GHR over christmas. I came back and it was gone! Do 45 degree back ext's count if I lift my heels and press my toes against the bottom like the old GHR machine?

Comment #29 - Posted by: Raul at January 29, 2007 8:54 PM

I know this will sound whiny, but is it possible to encode the videos as MPG? The Windows media file formats don't play well on my Linux computer.

Comment #30 - Posted by: neil at January 29, 2007 9:36 PM

#16 andrew and #28 tyler

the 'official' CFWU (crossfit warmup) is obviously a good way to warmup...it can be found on the site...do it EVERY time before the WOD...there is reason behind coach and co methods...as for a cool down, i usually find collapsing on my back to be the preferred method...but i do stretch at night though...

Comment #31 - Posted by: charlie from aus at January 29, 2007 9:44 PM

hey tyler et al -- 15x3 chins and dips seems like a lot until you've done it for a while -- after a bit of time it starts to seem like a joke.

Which is the beauty of the CFWU, in fact :-)

I'm trying to move along with the WU so that eventually I feel the same way about 15 muscle-ups or 15 handstand pushups. I'm up to 3 of each ;-)

Comment #32 - Posted by: Tim T at January 29, 2007 10:32 PM

This is a question for the "Angie" Workout, are people counting the couple min breaks in the time, because the chin ups took about 20 mins alone for me, and the rest took about the same, and the rest took only about 15 mins.

Comment #33 - Posted by: JHT at January 29, 2007 10:39 PM

Newbie question with historical reference. I have never done deadlifts before, except for form. One of my co-workers has been introducing several of us in the "joys" of crossfit for the past couple of weeks. He has been instructing myself and others on the form for the lifts, but we all we have used is an empty bar or one with a little weight on each end(135 max) depending on the lift. He is TDY for the next week and said we should follow the WOD. My question is how do I go about determining max effort safely?

Comment #34 - Posted by: Chris at January 29, 2007 10:56 PM

I just felt I had to say that I love Crossfit

Comment #35 - Posted by: Chris Skidmore at January 29, 2007 11:41 PM

CFWU (12), WOD as rx'd, (BW 185lb, 35 YO), 135-185-225-275-315-335-315lb, double BW not far away...free handstand holds to finish...felt good today...

#33 chris

just start with the 135lb, if you can do that with strict form...then gradually add weight each set whilst still maintaining strict form...when you lose form drop back the weight...

Comment #36 - Posted by: charlie from aus at January 29, 2007 11:45 PM

7 singles, you are supposed to start with your max weight and adjust accordingly. Sets before that are warmups and do not count. IF you finish with 350 lbs, you don't count reps whwere you are doing 150 lbs for singles.

get the full benefit. IT's 7 max effort singles. Not 5 warmups singles and 2 max effort singles.

Comment #37 - Posted by: jim at January 30, 2007 12:08 AM

#33 JHT,
On Angie, you count the rest time. From the moment you hop on the bar for the first pullup until you reach full extension on the last squat, the clock is running.

This hold true for most timed WODs, unless otherwise noted(i.e. Barbara).

Comment #38 - Posted by: Andy Shirley at January 30, 2007 12:44 AM

Neil, I use Linux, too. Try and download MPlayer. I'm pretty sure it can play .wmv files, sincee I haven't had any problems with seeing videos from CrossFit with that program. As for a plugin for Firefox, I think there is one, but I don't know it off-hand.

Just starting to do heavy deadlifts. I can do 345, but my friggin' hands were sweating, and the bar slipped out of my hands on the way back down. I need to get some chalk, I guess. It was funny breaking the "tough guy silence" at the base gym, with the weight hitting the floor.

Comment #51 - Posted by: Moccasin Guy at January 30, 2007 4:39 AM

Cameron #42,

I was having the same problem with the overhead squats, they need to be practiced in order to get the should flexibility and strength to do them. I found that doing them daily and increasing weight in my warm up has helped to make them doable. I have gotten to the point now where I feel comfortable and I can now really work on depth and I have been doing them in my warm up for about six months. So there is no really short term solution. I think it just takes practice, the other stretch I used was suggest here as well, that was with the stick or pvc pipe and you go into samson stretch and the then bring it with both hands behind your head and back. I found this to be helpful as well. I hope that helps.

#68- Some of those guys like to "camp out" in my corner as well. I tell them I would like to work in with them. They usually finish quickly after that and look for a a db to curl. Or I guess you could just stand there and wait...in front of their mirror. See, if you waited until Friday, you would have the place to yourself cuz the boys would be showing off their pump at happy hour. (Thanks for the opportunity to talk bodybuilder smack)!

I'm having trouble with my form on the DL. I find it impossible to get my back fully extended when gripping the bar from the ground (although I can do if I do a rack pull from about 8 inches higher)with my grip outside my knees while lining up my scapula with the bar and my shins touching the bar. however, If I place my hands inside of my knees in a sumo stance I have no trouble keeping my back extended, but that kinda changes the movement. I think this may be a flexibility issue and I am very slightly bowlegged which might be the root of my problem. If anyone has any suggestions or experienced the same problem please let me know. Thanks.

Here is the CFWU

From the FAQ: http://www.crossfit.com/cf-info/faq.html#General7

1.8. What's the "official" CrossFit warmup?
The "official" CrossFit Warm-up is in the April 2003 CrossFit Journal.

3 rounds of 10-15 reps of
Samson Stretch (do the Samson Stretch once each round for 15-30 seconds)
Overhead Squat with broomstick
Sit-up
Back-extension
Pull-up
Dip
Note that for a workout that's dip or pullup-centric, you might want to do something else in the warmup.

Felt like my back and legs could have taken more weight, but my grip was shaky, esp. on initial lift from the floor. I'd imagine the crossfit philosophy frowns on wrist straps, yeah?

Finished with a couple sets each of assisted pullups (where I need the most work by far), situps and dips. Also a couple sets of OHS with barbell to practice form, which still sucks. But I'm working on it.

Comment #144 - Posted by: Valerie S. at January 30, 2007 1:20 PM

Just starting here and I have a question! Yes, I read through the FAQs and such...

Ok, if today's exercise is the DL series, why is the video of a pressing snatch balance? Is that an alternate exercise or is it simply a new video and unrelated to today's WOD?

Comment #145 - Posted by: sheryl at January 30, 2007 1:22 PM

ADAM - Sounds like your not getting in a good position with your back when you begin your pull off the ground. You can't hope to straigten your back after you've already begun your pull. I haven't watched you, obviously, but from listening to your comment I think your looking to the wrong cues from your body. There is no way for you to tell if your shoulder blades are over the bar unless your watching live video feed from the ceiling. Concentrate on placing your HEELS at HIP width and allowing your toes to point in their natural direction. Grasp the bar outside your knees at a width that prevents interference between your forearms and knees during the pull. Take a deep breath and pull your but down while maintaining a natural lordic curve to your spine(straight back, not hyperextended). The bar should now be touching your shins and your weight should be on your heels. Pull the bar off the ground keeping a straight back and focusing on the sensation of driving your HEELS INTO THE PLATFORM. If you get the sensation that your being pulled forward then you are out of position. The bars too far from your legs, or you've driven your but up ahead of your shoulders.

JPW - similar suggestion. Knees behind toes? Why are you looking at your knees when you pull the bar off the ground? If you are, I bet you have a natural tendancy to want to curve your back. Focus on driving the heels, and keeping the weight back. When doing them correctly, I've always felt a little bit like I was going to fall backwards at the start. As soon as you initiate your pull, however, the weight of the bar will quickly remind you that this is impossible.

I tweaked my form a bit today and it may have helped. Did KB swings prior to the WOD for practice and did push ups/hand stands on the parallettes between sets.

Loving the questions today... The WOD and the pictures not matching, that's a new one for me.

Wondering if anyone else out there has lower back problems, and what you do to warm up for deadlifts. My L5 is broken. The Physical therapists I've described CF to think I'm off my rocker for doing what we do. But how else can you strengthen the spine without doing exercises that are designed to do just that? Just looking to the experienced for any tricks to stay limber. Thanks.

What is going on here?

The comments section is increasingly filling up with stupid uninitiated questions (that in 99% of the cases could be answered by the FAQ, or logic for that matter), and WHINING.. I cannot understand the point of comments like 'I hate deadlift' or 'I'm too sore today'.

If you don't like it- just don't do it. I doubt anyone will loose any sleep.

Finally, many thanks to Crossfit and all the extremely skilled and dedicated athelets and coaches that make all this information avaiable to all of us!

Cheers,
Pete

Pretty ashamed. Just did 7 reps (1 set) with 60kg/135pnds. Felt a pain in my lower back for the hour or so before so didn't want to push it, but had to do something...

Next time need to work on taking more weight off of the assists. Think I could have gone a little less weight today with a longer time but better work out.

Really need someone to watch my DL, push ups, and some others. Not sure of form.

The 441 lift was my goal tonight because it would be a 2.5x BW lift. The first foot was the toughest, after that, it went to lockout and then lowered, not dropped, to the ground. It was a controlled lift both ways and I'm quite happy for hitting this.

Comment #260 - Posted by: Nick E. at January 30, 2007 8:54 PM

Back after a long break, now with CF-curious girlfriend, so I'll call ourselves "Team Twin Cities" for now.

Done in 8f garage (Minneapolis) with a flashlight for lighting (working on getting electricity to the garage). Needless to say, Juliana was in a great hurry to finish up and get back in the house.

All weights in kilos.

Juliana: 15,20,25,27,27,27,27
John: (10x25kg warmup) 40,50,70,80,80,85,90

These actually got easier for me as I progressed and improved my form. I'll start at 80 next time around and shoot for 110 or so.

Deadlift without belt 220 - 267 -267 -290 -290 -290 -290 lbs. DL always my favorite exercise!
In our gym a discussion started whether it is allowed to use chalk or not....Since it is necessary for grip safety and hand security I hope they will make possible to use it.

#157 Edevine, my advice:
Be patient - be smart. A big jump in your max is not worth the risk.
Do the CFWU - warm up the entire body.
Stretch your ass. Seriously, my chiropractor showed me some stretches that stretch the glutes and showed me how the glutes (being a rather large muscle) pull and adjust your spine. Also stretch your quads. And stretch them in the mornings regardless.
Don't wear a belt on anything less than ~70% of your max. Build your core.
Wear a belt on the max efforts. Just for the safety.
Watch your form - back arched, shoulders back, lift from your ass (don't lift only your ass). Search for Coach Rippetoe's comments on deadlifts.

That's my routine. Yours and others' may vary.

Comment #296 - Posted by: Kevin gp at January 31, 2007 9:18 AM

My second day on CF. I can't do a pull-up, so I warmed up with 40# on lat pulls downs instead and am going to increase the weight every week and keep trying to do pull ups.
